Even after being rebuilt, the gasket on my transfer box sump has always leaked a bit.
I was planning on taking it off and replacing the paper gasket with a bead of instant gasket, has anyone had any success with this method?
It seems like it would also be better to replace the threaded studs and nuts with bolts. The oil seems to flow out down the studs.
If I had unlimited time, I would consider making up a cover from much thicker aluminium or steel plate. I don't see how you can get a very good seal with how thin the factory tin cover is.
